S04-4 Tracking participants in the Jackpot.fit program and progress in dissemination of the Austrian sport promotion initiative

Abstract Background In 2015 a co-operation between the social insurance and the organized sport has been established in order to install Jackpot.fit, a standardized sports club based program, initially in 8 regions in Styria, a federal state of Austria. Inactive adults receive information about the long-term exercise program during a 3-week residential stay in a health resort. We aim to investigate who attends Jackpot.fit, the adherence to the program in 2019 as well as the progress of dissemination of Jackpot.fit since 2016. Methods Participantś personal data were collected by telephone at the registration. Instructors documented the participants' attendance each single session with a standardized form. The number of participating regions as well as courses within the regions were monitored by the evaluator. Results Between 2016 and 2019 2624 people (70.8% female; age: M = 57.1, SD = 9.1 years; BMI = 25.8, SD = 4.3 kg/m2) registered for Jackpot.fit and 84.3% (n = 2212) attended as participants in at least one session. Between September and December 2019, 824 people registered for the courses with an adherence rate as follows: 291 (35.3%) visited 75% or more, 200 (24.3%) between 50% and 74.9% and 232 (28.2%) less than 49.9% of all 638 provided sessions. 101 (12.3%) registered but never attended once. The number of regions rose from 8 in 2016 to 28 in 2019 and the number of courses from 25 to 55 over the same period. Conclusions According to the total number of participants, regions, and courses the dissemination moves forward. Further strategies to improve adherence must be developed.

Background
Joining forces through collaboration between the health-and sports-sector led to the project Jackpot.fit, which aimed at increasing physical activity (PA) among inactive adults in Styria (a state of Austria). The main objective was to assess the short-and long-term effectiveness of a mixed PA intervention, consisting of counselling in a health care setting combined with a standardised sports club programme, on PA in an adult population.

Methods
In a quasi-experimental study with two follow-up time points (4 and 12 months after baseline), participants from eight regions were allocated to the intervention group (IG) and participants from three other regions to the comparison group (CG). Half of the study participants were women and the mean participants' age was 53 (SD AE 6) years. During the health resort stay, the IG received PA counselling and coupons for 12 complimentary, standardised training sessions in a sports club near the participants' home. Participants of the CG received identical PA counselling, but written material only. PA was measured with an accelerometer (GENEActive). Linear mixedeffects models were applied to examine changes of PA within and between groups over time.

Results
From 217 participants (IG = 167; CG = 50) at least one followup measurement was available. IG data showed a significant increase in moderate-intensity PA from baseline (101 min/ week) to 4 months (+58 min; 95% CI = 36 to 80) and 12 months (+24 min; 95% CI = 2 to 46) whereas there was no significant change in CG. Between-group comparisons revealed a significant difference after 4 but not after 12 months.

Conclusions
The study confirms the feasibility of coordinated actions between health care institutions and sport clubs to recruit people into a standardized PA programme. In addition, those who participated in the sports club programme increased their

Background
In 2019, the European Commission provided funding of nearly 400 thousand Euro for the third round of the Sports Club for Health (SCforH) project. The objective of this project is to increase participation in sport and HEPA in the Union by encouraging sports clubs and implement SCforH principles in their activities. To the objective of the project, in this study we aimed to develop a SCforH online learning tool. Methods Through a comprehensive literature search and consultations with the stakeholders in the area of sport, we created a list of examples of good practice in implementing SCforH initiatives and other related HEPA promotion practices in the sports context. The list was used to inform the development of the SCforH online learning tool. The SCforH online learning tool was developed through a consultation process including 15 experts in the area of sport and health.

Results
The SCforH online learning tool includes: a participation consent form; a module for setting learning objectives, textual, pictorial, and video learning materials; interactive learning exercises; in-course quizzes and self-assessment modules; a link to the database of SCforH initiatives and other related practices in the European Union; links to other available online materials for those who want to know more; a module for the assessment of acquired knowledge; a participant feedback module; an optional survey including questions relevant for the evaluation of SCforH activities.

Conclusions
The SCforH online learning tool will enable the realisation of other aims of the current SCforH project, in particular, raising the awareness of the SCforH guidelines among: European sports clubs; sport associations; HEPA promoters; policymakers; and students of physical education, sport science, and public health.

However, home dwelling older people with dementia are in general less active than peers. For those attending daycare, the amount of physical activity is highly dependent on the centre's policy. For those without daycare, municipalities are responsible for support but generally there is no attention to PA for this
